The Senior Detection Engineer joins the Protective Services team to build and improve technical capabilities for identifying threats against protected individuals. This hands-on security engineering role involves developing detections, pipelines, enrichment, and automation across enterprise security telemetry, marketplace signals, open-source information, and physical security systems.
